			I'm confused... I thought the foam was supposed to fill the whole cavity between the studs, from the outside wall to the cement board?

			What a douchebag. Zippy, you could probably tile. If you can spread peanut butter on bread, it ain't much different spreading mud with a notched trowel. Then stick the jammies on there. Black and Decker makes a good how to book on tiles. Fine Homebuilding's is ok too, but a bit more advanced. Dealing with prima donna tile guys sucks. Ps I'm digging Bro. Dave. Thanks. I'm sending you a Patton Oswalt.

			You are totally capable of doing your own tile if you can't find someone. I did my  shower and let's face it if I can do it it doesn't take big skills. That said, tile is not fun like wood-working or sex so...

			How is a tile floor like a man? Lay it right the first time and you can walk all over it for the rest of your life.
